The Geneva-Copenhagen survey of the Solar neighbourhood III (2009)

Keywords : Galaxy disk - Galaxy: solar neighbourhood - Galaxy: stellar content Galaxy: kinematics and dynamics - Galaxy: evolution - Stars: fundamental parameters

Abstract:Ages, chemical compositions, velocity vectors, and Galactic orbits for stars in the solar neighbourhood are fundamental test data for models of Galactic evolution. The Geneva-Copenhagen Survey of the Solar neighbourhood (Nordstrom et al. 2004A&A...418..989N; GCS), a magnitude-complete, kinematically unbiased sample of 16,682 nearby F and G dwarfs, is the largest available sample with complete data for stars with ages spanning that of the disk. We aim to improve the accuracy of the GCS data by implementing the recent revision of the Hipparcos parallaxes. ...(more)
